You DO remember the actual chain of events (in the movie) that provided the necessary warmth on that ice planet? Huh? Slashing open the Taun-Taun's belly so that the warm guts steamed out :chuckle: I think that part has to be re-created as well. "DeLuxe version comes with simulated intrails, can be pre-heated in microwave oven. Not suitable of children under 30". :rofl:

Lion 3 April 2009 09:48 PM

All I know is that some people(I will not name names-Jim)have way too much time on their respective hands!!!
